Sirheny007:
A true Legend.
A pan Africanist who paved way for other Africans.
The man who brought Igbo Culture and tradition to the world.
The flawless writer.
The greatest story teller.

I Read a lot of Heinemann's African writers series, and those guys would never forget Chinualumogu Albert Achebe in a hurry..especially Ngugi Wa Thiong'o
Your legacy lives on Sir.
When shall we begin to immortalize our heroes?

BTW: I still maintain that "Things Fall Apart" is grossly Overrated.
"Arrow of God" is, and will continue to be his best work.
Even he tried to admit it in the preface of the revised second Edition.

Lordave:
I agree with you but Things Fall Apart is not in anyway overrated, let alone being 'grossly' overrated.
As at the time when Things Fall Apart was published, nothing of such has ever come out of Africa, hence, the encomium it enjoys till tomorrow. Arrow of God itself is a masterpiece, but been Achebe's favourite doesn't translate to being his best work. Though different strokes for different folks.

If Things Fall Apart was published 5 years ago, it would still rank in the top ten best literary works from Africa.
